Description:
Currently, the emoji reaction and reply menu appears only when the user right-clicks on a message. This may not be intuitive for many users, as most messaging apps provide easier access to reactions.
Proposed UX Improvements:
Show emoji reaction and reply options when Hovering over a message for example as in Telegram (in web app).
Alternative UX Improvements:
- Add a small "..." (more options) Button on message: clicking this button opens a menu with reactions, reply, and copy options. (it will be more intuitive for users to understand that they can do something with message without overthinking)
- Display a Small Tooltip on First Use: if keeping the right-click option, add a tooltip for first-time users, like: "Right-click a message to react or reply!"
